This is such a nice, soft brush. Applies the right amount of blush and blends nice!

Pro's-This brush is very soft... hasn't shed during washes... stays soft after washes..inexpensive.. small enough to contour
Con's-Way to small for blush brush...I don't care much for the shape..

Its ok for contouring if you take/have the time. But honestly I never reach for it esp if I'm in a hurry since contouring with this can come off well a little streaky.
I wouldn't buy it again and wouldn't recommend it

Overall I really think this product worked for me. After my friend recommended it i decided to try it since it was only $3 not so bad for most brushes. To my surprise i LOVE this brush better than any expensive brush i could of got somewhere else. It appears small you just have to apply it around your cheek and it grabs the blush color really well. The studio line is the best line that E.L.F has.

Great as a countour/highlight brush. The tapered point is perfect for sweeping bronzer onto the cheekbones. If you're looking for a blush brush, this may disappoint. It's not flufffy at all and makes blush application a little tricky.

This brush is very soft... hasn't shed during washes... stays soft after washes.. small enough to contour and do apples of cheeks.. the only thing is... I wish it was more dome like... that's why I knocked 1 off. I want to pick up a different blush brush and use this one for contour.

This is okay for blush, not fluffy enough for my preference. However, it is good for highlighting and contouring. It's soft and inexpensive, which is a plus!

I use this brush every single day. I find it perfect for applying bronzer to the hollows of the cheek or highlighting the cheekbones. I don't like to use it for blush so much since it has a tapered point.

I Find This Brush Crap For Blush. It's Just to Small And Will Make You Look Streaky. I Use The Complexion Brush From E.L.F instead and it works wonders for me.

At the moment, I have no use for this brush. But i plan on trying to use it for contouring.

It doesn't shed or deposit ink when you wash it, so thats a plus.

UPDATE: It's good for contouring

I find the shape really awkward for applying blush on the apples of my cheeks, its like a flattened domed brush, kind of like a giant 217.

update: I need to take that back, I found it awkward because I was busy trying to buff blush onto my cheeks which I'm used to, it works better if you just sweep it on as the instructions say. I like it now , I find that it wastes less product

My feelings on this are mixed. As with the other brushes in their Studio Line, this looks nice, is densely enough packed to give nice solid performance (in theory), and hasn't given me any problems with shedding.
That being said, though, I feel like this doesn't pick up *quite* enough product, although I'm also using a solid blush, and those are always harder to access with brushes that are this soft. It does a great job with my loose blush, and is great for blending any of my blushes (I vary between very few, anyway), I just wish that it would do a tad bit better with my solid. For that reason, I'm taking off a star, but it's still a nice all-around blush brush, especially for the price.

*Cringes* I'm basically a noob at everything makeup. I started wearing blush not too long ago, and kinda just realized that the brushes that blush compacts come with are, well, godawful. So, I bought this VERY reasonably priced brush ($3 at Target) to replace my crappy tiny brushes with.
Now, like I said, I AM a NoobLord at this stuff, BUT, I'm no dunce. I can seriously tell the difference between this brush and the others. This one is soft, big, and keeps me from over-applying blush. It could be better at picking up product, but like I said, it keeps me from over-applying. With this brush, I can achieve a soft, blended look without the clownface. Also, this brush is easy to clean, which is good for me because it's the only brush I use now (unless I take my blush on the road and absolutely have to use the compact brush).
I gave this brush a 4 instead of a 5 because I feel like there are better brushes out there, but this one definitely deserves a high rating due to the performance for its price. I'll keep this one around before I decide I need a new or better one.

I've had this brush for a couple months now. I'm really liking it. It's really soft and picks up product well. Since it's slightly tapered towards the end, it also works well for contouring.

I really like mine. The bristles are very soft and they pick up pigment quite well. It's good, but I'd like to try other brushes after this one to see how they compare.

UPDATE: I tried using this as a foundation brush and it works much better. It leaves a polish, more natural finish. Very easy to work with, i've never been left with a streaky outcome. This cannot compare to higher end brushes, or even mid end but it works decently. Though, it does eat a lot of product and it seems impossible to wash all of my liquid foundation out.


I use to use an ecotools brush for my blush which works great but I wanted to try out a real blush brush.
Upon having no excess money for a higher end brush, I went with this one. Be aware that they're made differently. They are not all the same shape and I had to sift through to get one that was closest to what it was "suppose" to be. This is very common with ELF brushes, which can get to be very annoying very quickly.

The bristles are very soft and the pointed shape is great to fitting over cheekbones. Of course the design is very sleek and it's sturdy enough - considering the price. Very easy to control as well.
This picks up pigment very well. Though it does not pick it up evenly, meaning it's placed on the brush patch-like. It's an odd thing. It applies the blush okay but doesn't really glide on the skin. The brush sort of drags it along and takes off some of my foundation with it. since it's a soft brush, thankfully it doesn't hurt. The only way to somehow avoid this is to use it as lightly as possible, which can be tricky within itself.
It does not shed, which is a plus. The shape holds up well and it dries quickly.

I'm disappointed but it's only $3. For what it is, it's not bad and decent for people just starting out, who don't wear blush often or anyone who's on a budget. But do not expect high quality out of it's performance.
I will continue to use until I buy a better brush. This will be kept as a backup, too. With that being said, I will not repurchase.
